A single center prospective study: Influences of different hip flexion angles on the measurement of lumbar spine bone mineral density by dual energy X-ray absorptiometry
To investigate whether there is an influence on the results of lumbar spine bone mineral density (BMD) measured by dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) under three different hip flexion angles (90°, 45°, 0° of hip flexion). We collected a total of 60 outpatients, including 44 females (56.4 ± 5.7 y...
